Does it work? Which symptoms does it reduce from worsening? How long has your loved one been living with it?

I think my loved one may have this disease. We took her to the doctor today and it was clear, she was having problems with memory. An MRI will be done next week.

Need some information PLEASE ..Thank you!
Do u know what medication they were taking? They gave her a patch called Exelon Patch

Something I’m wondering cuz my mom has had dementia for 5 yrs now. Do these people TRULY don’t remember anything or they do but this disease/condition is somehow “imprisoning” them, so to speak, from being able to physically communicate to us? Sorry if this sounds weird or confusing I’m trying to be as clear as I can.

I guess what I’m asking is are these diseases like a form of “possession”? Not by spirits, but from a health condition I mean. Are these people truly not there AT ALL?

The reason why I’m asking is it legal to have an elderly person sign loans and has alzheimer’s. I know it sick and morally wrong but is it illgeal. What’s the Ohio elderly anonymous hotline?

I found out about an year ago that my grandmother has Alzheimers . She has been getting worse and to the point where it is affecting her health and family relationships.

I have been patient with her disease, but lately it has been getting out of hand. I used to go along with the things she would say/imagine so that i wouldn’t confuse her, but i can’t do that anymore.

I can’t go along with this anymore for MANY safety reasons. These are Only some of the reasons/problems:

She claims that she already drank her medicine when it is clear that she has not, and she has to drink A LOT of it to function well

She also claims that I take her money when she really has no money left!
I tried to go along with it once, letting her beleive that I did take her money, but she ended up not trusting me for a good while!

It breaks my heart that the only things she remembers out of her whole day is that I took her money or that i’m tricking her into drinking more medicine.

What do I do?

my father seems to think he can pass it on to me but I’m guessing it’s more complicated than that.
